Adored Koi in the ’70s

Chapter 48

Some people originally just followed the river to watch the drama. But now they decided not to go!

The gossip here was fresher and more popular!

They completely surrounded Qiao Zhen Jun: "Old Second Qiao, why are you suddenly alright?"

"Yes! Yes ah! Didn't the doctor say that even if the operation is performed, it will not be cured?"

"That's right, that's what I heard from the doctor back then. The doctor also said that you can only lie in bed for the rest of your life!"

At the beginning, many villagers and the production leader sent Qiao Zhen Jun to the town hospital. They had heard what the doctor said. This was why they were so shocked now.

Qiao Zhen Jun scratched his head and said bluntly, "I don't know either. I started to feel pain in my lumbar spine a period ago. Then my legs gradually got feeling. I've been practicing walking for the past month, but I still can't walk too long."

"Started feeling a period ago. When is that?" A Sherlock Holmes-like villager asked with determination to break the case to the end.

Qiao Zhen Jun halted a moment before vaguely uttered: "I don't remember this clearly. It's nearly lunch time. We have to go first."

After he finished speaking, he walked away with his elder brother's arm support.

The few villagers didn't get their fill of satisfaction.

The Sherlock Holmes-like villager spoke: "I bet a cucumber, old Second Qiao started to get better after he divorced Fang Xiao Juan!"

"How do you know?"

The Sherlock Holmes-like villager explained: "Have you forgotten? When old Second Qiao and Fang Xiao Juan divorced, the pear tree in Qiao's courtyard that hadn't bloomed for seven or eight years bloomed. The pear trees bloomed in winter. What an abnormal event!"

"I remember this. I even went to Qiao's small house to see it. The pear blossoms were blooming so wonderfully!"

"I also went to see it. I heard that it recently went into fruition. I guess the fruit can be eaten soon!"

"I don't know if Qiao Family would agree when I ask for some from them then?"

"What are you dreaming about!" the Sherlock Holmes-like villager coughed, "After Fang Xiao Juan left, Qiao Family's hen that hadn't been laying eggs for few months is laying eggs again. Then Da Qiao's stuttering was cured. Also on that meat distribution day, Qiao Family was allocated an extra 30 jins of pork!"

Thinking of thirty jins of pork, everyone's saliva was about to come down again.

"But a lot of bad things happened in Qiao Family. Take the five children. Two of them are divorced. I heard that Qiao's old Fifth is going to get divorced now. What's so good?"

The Sherlock Holmes-like villager sneered: "Which family doesn't have their own mess? According to me, Qiao Family is the smartest for breaking the in-law relationship with Fang Family. You seen that broken matters cropping up one after another for Fang Family. Since Wang Family picked up such a broken shoe, they will have trouble in the future!"

Qiao Zhen Jun came to Qiao's old house with his elder brother's helping hand.

When everyone saw him like this, they all stood up in shock.

Qiao Xiu Zhi was the first to come back to his senses and exclaimed with a look of surprise: "Old Second, your legs..."

Qiao Zhen Jun happily told: "Mom, I can walk with my legs. I regained feeling in it before. I wanted to surprise everyone, so I haven't told anyone!"

Even though Qiao Zhen Min was full of melancholy, he was really happy for his Second Brother when he saw that he could stand up!

Da Qiao flew over, hugged her dad's leg, and delightfully said with a raised head: "Dad, you can walk now!"

This was wonderful!

When she gave her dad jade bead water, she just wanted to give it a try. She didn't expect it to be so effective!

She was really grateful to the little fish. If only she could see little fish again in this life!

Qiao Zhen Jun rubbed the child's head and grinned, "Yes, Dad can walk."

In the future, this child will not have to work so hard. He will not be her burden!

Qiao Xiu Zhi was completely overjoyed in her heart. She ordered Wan Chun Ju: "Eldest's wife, go and fry another plate of bacon and mushrooms!"

Being called, Wan Chun Ju was so happy that the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes almost flew: "Okay, Mom. I'll go right now!"

Excellent. She can steal a few bites of bacon while cooking!

Chen Qiao Qiao took the initiative to stand up and spoke, "Eldest Sister-in-law, you are pregnant. Let me go!"

If it were before, Chen Qiao Qiao would definitely not take the initiative to do the work. But now that she lost little Wan'er and her man ignored her, she felt like a sinner of thousand years.

She didn't want to divorce Qiao Zhen Min, so she urgently wanted to do something to get on Qiao Family's good side.

Wan Chun Ju pointed her eyes and responded, "No need, Qiao Qiao. You just came back. Just sit down. It's just one dish, I'll be done soon!"

This damn little bum Chen Qiao Qiao! Usually one don't see her so active. She must be trying to steal bacon!

Of course Chen Qiao Qiao could guess the big bum Wan Chun Ju's thoughts. Still, she had to fight for it: "I wasn't home for a month and Eldest Sister-in-law did all the work. I'm back now. Eldest Sister-in-law can take a rest. I'll go do it!"

"No, Mom let me go!"

"Then I'll go with Eldest Sister-in-law!"

"No need. How could frying a dish take two people?"

The two of them fought. To the unknown, they would think that Qiao Family's two daughters-in-law were hardworking and simple!

Qiao Xiu Zhi couldn't stand it any more and shouted, "Neither of you need to go, Hong Xia, go fry it!"

Wan Chun Ju: The meat in the mouth flew. Damn that little bum!

Chen Qiao Qiao didn't notice that Wan Chun Ju was glaring at her. She turned her head to look at her man.

The two's gaze collided in the air. Soon Qiao Zhen Jun turned his head away.

Chen Qiao Qiao lowered her head in frustration.

When it was time to eat, everyone discovered that the main room's dining table had actually split in half.

Except for Qiao Zhen Min, the jaws of everyone else almost fell to the ground.

Qiao Xiu Zhi calmly spoke: "Let's eat on the stone table outside today. Later, we'll get someone to make another one."

This broken table was built by Qiao Zhen Jun. His legs just recovered and definitely can't do wood work.

Because Qiao Zhen Min's family came over today, one more meat dish was added to the already made three meat dishes. The family had their lips covered with oil.

Even Qiao Zhen Min, who was in a bad mood, couldn't help but clip two more chopsticks full of food.

After eating, Qiao Xiu Zhi told everyone about little Wan'er's disappearance. Everyone fell silent after hearing it.

Thoughtful Qiao Dong He's eyes reddened. Covering her face, she started crying.

When Da Qiao saw her elder cousin sister crying, she hurried to her side and softly coaxed, "Elder Cousin Sister don't cry. Little Wan'er will definitely come back!"

Although Da Qiao was a year older now, her voice was still soft and waxy. Delicate as cotton candy.

When Qiao Dong He heard Younger Sister comforting her, she was too embarrassed to cry. She raised her head and pinched Younger Sister's face and responded, "Okay. Elder Cousin Sister, won't cry. Let's find little Wan'er together!"

When Qiao Zhen Min heard Da Qiao's words, his gloomy eyes lit up. His gaze fixed on Da Qiao. However, receiving a pointed gaze from his mom, he restrained himself.

To be honest, even now, he still didn't believe in things like luck and ghosts.

However, he was at the end of his rope. In the past month, he had tried everything and still had no news of little Wan'er.

Therefore, he was willing to believe in the existence of these things if little Wan'er can be brought back.

If little Wan'er can come back, he was willing to glorify Da Qiao in the future. He will have resistance, as long as little Wan'er can come back...

Wan Chun Ju didn't know about little Wan'er's disappearance earlier. Now she glanced at Chen Qiao Qiao with some guilt.

She was wondering why little butt Chen Qiao Qiao looked as thin as a paper man after not seeing for a month. It turned out that this happened!

She was so unlucky!

Forget it. If there is a next time, she'll let her fry the meat.

Qiao Zhen Guo said: "Fifth Younger Brother, Eldest Brother isn't very capable. But Eldest Brother got a whole body of strength. After you rest for a while, Eldest Brother will ask for leave to go with you to find little Wan'er!"

Qiao Zhen Jjun spoke: "Fifth Younger Brother, I can't search with you for the time being due to my legs. But I still have some money left. If you need it, just use it!"

Qiao Hong Xia followed up: "Youngest Brother, let me know when you are going on the search. I will go with you!"

Qiao Zhen Min's eyes were wet again. It felt sour and uncomfortable: "Eldest Brother, Second Elder Brother, Third Elder Sister, thank you! Also, Dad and Mom, thank you!"

Qiao Zhen Guo waved his hand: "We're family, no need to say thank you!"

Xue Chuan quietly grasped his wife's hand and whispered, "You can rest assured now?"

Qiao Xiu Zhi looked at him and smiled.

If the few children can help each other like this in the future, there was nothing to worry even if she and Xue Chuan pass away in the future.

...

The children who fell into the river were rescued. Fortunately no one drowned.

Although the weather was getting warmer each day, it was still spring. The water in the river was still very cold. After the children who fell into the water were rescued, they constantly trembled and sneezed.

One child had been in the water for a long time. Because of his young age, he developed a high fever soon after he was rescued.

This child was none other than Fang Family's Fang You Rou.

When the rescuer saw that there was no one from Fang Family present, he was furious. He carried Fang You Rou to Fang's house and put him down. He didn't need their thanks and turned around and left.

When old woman Fang saw her wet youngest grandson, her face turned pale and she wailed: "My precious little grandson, what happened to you? Who pushed you into the water? Quickly get up and tell Grandmother. Grandmother will go to settle the account with them!"

Fang You Rou closed his eyes as he shivered all over. He kept screaming cold. How could he possibly say anything else?

Fang You Liang, who had always been inseparable with Fang You Liang, disappeared at this time.

Fang Fu Gui came out. When he saw his youngest son like this, he impatiently uttered, "Enough. Why are you crying at this time? Why don't you hurry up and send him to the health clinic?"

Only then did old woman Fang remember to send him to the clinic. However, she had sprained her waist and couldn't hold the child at all. While Fang Fu Gui couldn't carry the child due to his legs.

Old woman Fang had to go to Wang's house on crutches to ask them for help.

Although Wang Family felt that Fang Family was troublesome, they didn't refuse this kind of life-death matter.

In the end, Fang You Rou's life was saved. It cost Fang Family a total of five yuan!

Old woman Fang felt her flesh ached.

As for Qiao Family's side, the news that Qiao Zhen Jun was able to stand up and walk again soon spread throughout the entire Qili Village.

Fang Xiao Juan was stunned when she heard the news.

Old Second Qiao stood up?

Impossible!

Must be a scam!

At the side, Xiao Qiao was also extremely shocked.

Her dad stood up? So what was the point of her getting her mom divorced in the first place?

At the beginning, she thought her dad would be paralyzed for the rest of his life, so she urged her mom to change her spouse to Wang Xin Sheng.

Who knew that things weren't as good as she imagined. Wang Family didn't treat them, mother and daughter as anything!

She was like a cow and a horse in Wang's house. She had to do everything. If she had known that her dad would be better, why would she have picked up sesame seeds and lost the watermelon?

She got up with the desire to run out, but was stopped by her mom.

"Xiao Qiao, come back here. If you dare to look for old Second Qiao, don't come back in the future!"

When Fang Xiao Juan said this, she wasn't afraid that Xiao Qiao wouldn't come back. Because she had already seen the big picture. That old witch, Qiao Xiu Zhi wouldn't let Xiao Qiao go back!

Xiao Qiao almost clenched her teeth to pieces with hatred!

Soon, a new news bombed the entire Qili Village again. Qiao Family asked a matchmaker to go to Lin Family to propose marriage!

After inquiring, everyone knew that it was Qiao Zhen Jun who wanted to marry the widow, Lin Hui!

This time, even Fang Xiao Juan couldn't stay calm.
